as_o protestant_n confess_v by_o miracle_n but_o priest_n as_o before_o have_v this_o power_n therefore_o order_n and_o consecration_n be_v a_o sacrament_n both_o proposition_n be_v manifest_o true_a further_o i_o argue_v thus_o whosoever_o acknowledge_v that_o in_o consecrate_v priest_n by_o imposition_n of_o hand_n by_o the_o bishop_n the_o holy_a ghost_n grace_n and_o power_n be_v give_v to_o

to_o give_v the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o dispose_v of_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o give_v power_n which_o no_o potentate_n on_o earth_n can_v give_v and_o the_o like_a prerogative_n

therefore_o to_o be_v esteem_v a_o sacrament_n the_o mayor_n proposition_n be_v evident_o true_a for_o a_o external_a ceremony_n give_v and_o signify_v such_o power_n grace_n and_o privilege_n that_o
